It's almost as if you've heard that live track a few times.

He's one of those artists where, not everything he does appeals to me equally. I don't often have the urge to stack up several of his albums, and just play through them. But the songs that hit me, HIT me. Games Without Frontiers - my gods.

Their are peaks and valleys for me in the bodies of work of most artists I love, but the peaks of Peter's work have exhilarated me and expanded my horizons more than the work of perhaps any other musical artist. Just an astounding artist in my opinion.

I do have some artists - and, this may be more about me, than about them - where I really can stack up hours of their albums, and just let it roll. I think it's mostly artists I found early, who I listened to, as full albums, early.

I also think it's about how much I appreciate their sound and consistency, but most of them are artists I've been listening to since my teens or twenties. Tull, Zevon, BOC.

Yeah, I got turned on to Peter Gabriel when I was an impressionable teenager just starting to really form my own musical sensibilities. He was the right artist at the right time and he left a lifelong impression on me.

I have a sense that music that you find and identify with in that time, that, oh, 12-25 window, tends to *really* stick with you. I've found artists I *love*, as an adult. But I feel like those early bands are literally imprinted on me.

I just want to say, in a day where the news is awful, and Twitter was even more hellish than usual, how relaxing and refreshing a conversation about music, and Peter Gabriel, is.

Agreed. Art, and the love of it, is part of what keeps us human in times like this.

I am not a conventionally religious person. I think people sometimes think I'm joking when I say that rock & roll is one of the closest things I have, to a religion. A great album, or concert? That's one of the things that's as close as I get, to going to church.

Oh, absolutely. I've been to concerts that 100% felt like religious experiences.
